    Looped is an audio & visual journey through the eyes of KCRW DJ Anthony Valadez. Explore the streets, beats and meet the people who make it happen.

    —

    This week, Anthony visits beloved Los Angeles based record label Innovative Leisure. IL is home to many KCRW favorites, including Hanni El Khatib, Nick Waterhouse, Classixx, BadBadNotGood, Allah-Las and more. From packaging to their diverse roster of artists – these guys do it right. Part 1 takes you behind the scenes of their well-appointed home base and sets the table for part 2, which will drop next week (interview + performance).
